I would think the next step would be to find a good teacher who can help you make further progress.
Getting sheet music sounds like a great idea - but I'd still find a teacher.

The big difference between learning from a book or from a teacher is that, unless you are learning Classical, a good teacher will use the type of music you like to cover the techniques you are learning.
If you only want heavy metal or punk, of course, or anything just using TAB a book will do the trick most times.
Around half the people that private teachers deal with will tell you that they have tried learning from books first.
